Bottom line for IT leaders

I have been using Flock as my primary Web browser on Windows XP, Mac OS X, and Windows Vista for over a year, and it has become my Web browser of choice — mainly because it is fast and stable. It is essentially a more polished version of Firefox with some extra tools for multimedia and social networking. It's a good choice for IT departments to deploy for power users, Web developers, and users who could benefit from the privacy and security features of Firefox but need a browser that is a little more polished and easier to use.
